"AI" skills are basically just documentation and it says something about how documentation only gets resources and respect if it is framed as "technology". Which has gender bias all over it.
Rant over- happy Monday π
The most obnoxious thing about being forced to adopt to AI as a designer is the every-other-post drumbeat about becoming a founder with whatever we build.
....and it's like JESUS FUCKING CHRIST some of us are trying to catch up and work- not become a LinkedIn zombie
βStoner joins the low-rent Illuminatiβ is a great pitch.
You ever tear into a bag of those Kingβs Hawaiian sweet rolls without bothering to put butter on any of them? Thatβs a real starch fiend move.
Depending on the trope, thatβs either fine or a vicious burn.
I've been through so much technological change in my life this LLMs are the end of history stuff really gets to me.
IT TOTALLY CHANGES DESIGN
no it really doesn't. you're thinking of runaway financialization and gutting the public sector such that we've given up on improving material conditions.
One of the funniest things Iβve seen on the internet in a while.
Oh my god- this is so SO my kind of shit!!!
we take it for granted now but the person who came up with the word βairballβ really nailed it with that one
(Seinfeld voice) βWhadda you mean I gotta steer with my knees??β
Genuinely hate. Even when Iβd see those guys in parades, Iβd think βnobody should respect these adults.β
Jesus Christ you guys
The worst thing about learning how to use AI tools as a designer is that the βshould designers codeβ question got answered for us by the dumbest fucks alive.
Redoing my portfolio and case studies with β¨AI ENHANCEMENTS β¨ because there is no god
"artificial information" is an exciting new euphemism for lying
Got absolutely roasted this weekend for the fact that I use olive oil when Iβm cooking breakfast food.
2L bottle of Clamato is the next step up if youβre nuts enough
Goddamn thatβs a sexy fucking logo application.
Can someone put rat poison in Gavin Newsomeβs hair gel already
Is there a better metaphor for UX design than the fenced-in unicorn?
Wrote this for work so it's a *little* cringe but it's my earnest advice to designers trying to fight PMs for "ownership" of decision-making. There is another (better) way.
Amazon would rather blame its own engineers than its AI

eating mcdonalds for a whole month so it shoots out like FlexSeal
The new Converge record might be a clunker, but Iβve been rewatching Avatar: The Last Airbender and that still rocks at least.
Thereβs ten songs, and six of those are great, but the four that drag REALLY drag (we get it- you guys like Neurosis). Placing several meandering, uninspired sludge trudges in between the ragers kills their momentum and dulls the whole presentation.
Ben Kollerβs still a GOAT drummer though.
I wish I could get onboard with the new Converge record, but WOOF. This is, like, the third mixed bag in a row from a band that used to churn out scorchers.
this clip from Shoresy of people rattling off Dutch names is the funniest and most impressive thing Iβve seen on tv in a long time
Oh god- Penn Station in a snowstorm is a nightmare! Best of luck out there, Josh π«‘
